    Just a few LEDs...
    Try Easy-Off oven cleaner. That's what I used on my headlight bezels.
    Just spray it on, let it sit for 15 minutes and hose it off. Repeat if needed.

    If you want to soak it in a tub, use crystal Draino. The active ingredient in both is Sodium Hydroxide.

    Thank for the info. I will give it a try next time. It will probably be in 3 months or so. A friend of mine is selling me a superpolysteel kit for $75 that he got at the dealer ship. What do you know about the Polly steel
